Herbert was in the mainstream of this theology and in full doctrinal support of the institution in which Laud would later' become Archbishop and which Donne served as its most eloquent preacher.
For Herbert, the Jews served a theological purpose: they were the "proof, and witnesses" of Christianity, and he believed.that any sympathy shown towards them should be predicated on their compliance with the conversionist image that was designated for them by St. Paul and which he borrowed in the last two lines of his poem.
While Herbert's verse rumbles with an undercurrent of theological and psychological tension, Vaughan's Silex Scintillans addresses the eschatological climax in which that tension finally culminated, a climax that was predicated on the conversion of the Jews.

He was the elder brother of the poet George Herbert (1593-1633) and of Sir Henry Herbert (1591-1675), the Master of the King's Revels, to mention only two of his nine siblings.
Herbert's system was not really Christian, and by the beginning of the next century he was designated "the father of English deism" by Thomas Halyburton, writing in 1714.
As a philosopher, Herbert is difficult—his knowledge is encyclopaedic and he loves displaying it, but his Latin style is often rather laboured, complex, and difficult, perhaps due to the fact that he employed Thomas Master, a particularly long-winded Latinist, as an adviser about the language.

 Malaspina Great Books - Mary Sidney Herbert (1561-1621)
Born on October 27, 1561, Mary Sidney, sister to Sir Philip Sidney, was the fourth child and third daughter born to Sir Henry Sidney, president of Wales and Lord Governor of Ireland, and Mary Dudley, daughter of the duke of Northumberland.
Young Mary's arrival coincided with nineteen days of festivity organized for the queen at Kenilworth Castle, which included "'accidental' encounters with allegorical personages on bridges or in holly bushes that made it seem as though the queen and her court were vacationing in Spenser's realm of Faerie" (Hannay 34).
Although a powerful personage in Elizabeth's court, Herbert's finances were then in such disarray (in part from his support of Elizabeth's Spanish campaigns) that he asked and received an advance from her father on her dowry of three thousand pounds.

 John Donne, George Herbert, Henry Vaughan: Religious Metaphysical poetry.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Some of the chief characteristics of Donne's style are: the abrupt opening of a poem with a surprising dramatic line; the use of colloquial diction; the ideas in the poem being presented as a logical and persuasive argument, the purpose of which is to aid his wooing, whether of a woman or God.
A technique Herbert introduced was the ending of a poem with two quiet lines which resolve the argument in the poem without answering the specific points raised by it, and this represents quite a dramatic break from Donne.
Herbert is down-to-earth and simple in his imagery, his images having impact because they are more 'domestic' than one would expect for such a grand subject.
